This is what is going on with the economy (simplified)

Have you wondered why the stock market has gone crazy, while the real economy slumps? Why the rich are getting so much richer, while the poor are getting so much poorer?

Why Progressive House Members Should #UseYourPower #ForceTheVote

‘Sire! The Peasants are Revolting! Updated

Why aren’t we actually revolting (yes, we’re deplorable useless eaters, a different matter altogether)?  Our ruling Kleptocrats don’t care if we live or die, but most make noises as if they do.  ‘Elect me!

The Peasants are useful only to serve their needs, pay taxes from the Fruits of Our Labor to fund our own further immiseration and precarity!

Are we dead or just asleep?  Do we keep on believing that Voting really matters?
